So then I wrote...
1:11:08
"Dear friend...
1:11:11
"Just a note to advise.
1:11:16
"You may retain my letters
as long as you deem fit.

1:11:21
"Study them, reread them,
think them out.

1:11:25
"Who back at the home office
is out to get you?

1:11:30
"Who, at this very moment...
1:11:34
"is sitting at your desk...
1:11:37
"reading your mail?
1:11:41
I don't say this to be cruel, but because
I'm the only one left you can trust."

1:11:49
No answer.
1:11:52
But the next day, a man saying he was
from the telephone company showed up...

1:11:57
no complaint had been made...
to check my telephone.

1:12:02
Shaky hands...
1:12:06
bloodshot eyes.
1:12:10
And as he dismembered
my telephone...

1:12:14
he said...
1:12:17
"Look, what nobody understands...
1:12:21
"is that everybody's
got his job to do.

1:12:25
"I got my job.
1:12:27
"In this case,
it's preparing telephones.

1:12:32
"I like it or I don't like it...
1:12:35
"but it's my job.
1:12:38
"If I had another job,
say with the F.B. I...

1:12:43
"or someplace putting in
a wiretap, for example...

1:12:45
"or maybe even reading a guy's mail...
1:12:48
"like it or don't like it,
it would be my job.

1:12:51
Does anybody got the right
to destroy a man for doing his job?"
